Re: Digital desk that can bus a mic input to more than 1 preamp?




Can someone explain the need for differing gain structures in a desk for monitors and foh?

I have never had the need to do this. Optimum gain structure should be the same regardless, the electronics don't care if the signal is going to a wedge or foh cab. For channel eq, compression etc, yes, I see the benefit, but the input trim should always be set for maximum s/n and to allow max dynamic range.
